It is a Bildungsroman and a picaresque novel. It was first published on 28 February 1749 in London and is among the earliest English works to be classified as a novel. It is the earliest novel mentioned by W. Somerset Maugham in his 1948 book Great Novelists and Their Novels, in which Maugham ranks the ten best novels of the world. The novel is highly organised despite its length. Samuel Taylor Coleridge argued that it has one of the "three most perfect plots ever planned", alongside Oedipus Rex by Sophocles and The Alchemist by Ben Jonson. It became a best-seller, with four editions published in its first year alone. It is generally regarded as Fielding's greatest book and as an influential English novel.' (Wiki) ***A second impression of the first Folio Society edition, produced on nice quality paper and in a quality binding, and beautifully illustrated. A lovely copy of the work to have as a reading copy - far superior to a modern paperback. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. Engravings by Derrick Harris (illustrator).

As issued, in paper over boards, backed in buckram; 8 full page wood engravings and two in-text vignettes. Generally an attractive copy; spine a trifle sunned; tail of the spine bumped; bookseller's pencil notes…to front free endpaper; bottom edges of many pages are just a bit toned, quite subtle; a beautiful copy. "First published in 1603, in Latin, this very early picaresque novel immediately became a European best-seller. Written by a Scotsman who was born and bred in France, it was reprinted in Latin twenty times with the first seventy years, and was also translated into French, Dutch, and German. It was never translated into English, although the original was widely read in England at the time. Our translation was thus the first to introduce Euphormio's bizarre and unpredictable adventures to the ordinary reader" Cock-A-Hoop 196.
